Antiwar poetry book entitled "Planet in Peril: Poet's Lament" for release on 11th Sept.2004
Gandhi Earth Vision Foundation ^ | September,2004 | Madan G. Gandhi

Planet in Peril is the poet’s lament on the frantic stockpiling of nuclear weapons imperilling all life on this planet of ours. Unlike modern day Neros who are seen fluting with sadistic ecstasy when all-engulfing flames are threatening to turn this only habitat of ours into a burning inferno, the poet’s soul weeps in mournful numbers when he reflects over the impending disaster.

Dr., Your Eastern philosophy is wasted here. We are hardcore Westerners with John Wayne values.

You will find much more appreciation and validation by posting over at DU. The'll eat this stuff up and maybe even send you some money.

Not just shameless self-promotion but I contest that the official release date for the book is September 11. 9/11 falls on a Saturday this year and what new releases come out on a Saturday? I think the author is saying it's being released on 9/11 to make a statement. In fact, the entire book was posted here on FR, so, in that sense, it's already been released (at least the content).

Planet in Peril is the poet’s lament on the frantic stockpiling of nuclear weapons imperilling all life on this planet of ours.

The global stockpile of nuclear weapons has declined from a peak of 65,056 in 1986 to 20,190 in 2002. Source

In other words, the total number of nuclear weapons has decreased by over 2/3rds over the past two decades.

When did "ignorance" become "a point of view?"

Three Years Later




It’s been three years since we all saw,
The sneak attack unfold.
The cowards killed the innocent,
But fear did not take hold.
We mourned the lost and then set out,
To stop these creatures vile.
We knew the fight would not be quick,
No this would take a while.
Yes just three years have passed since then,
But many have forgot.
They think that we should just come home,
They do not think a lot.
Some say, “Respond if we’re attacked”,
They did not learn a thing.
If we sit back and wait again,
More horrors it will bring.
We can’t forget, we can’t back down,
We must maintain our stand.
Yes, Nine Eleven happened here,
Not in some foreign land.
Please pray for peace and for our troops,
For freedom they do fight.
The Lord will guide us through this all,
If we follow His Light.

"The peace rallies and mammoth peace marches which have been witnessed in different parts of the world including United States of America following invasion of Iraq is a silver lining in dark horizon. "

I've seen plenty of violence and threats of violence first-hand at these so-called peace rallies.
